    Hello,

    New user so I apologize if this is a basic fix.

    Video seems to work fine in Firefox but getting a feed error in Chrome or IE.

    Hi, when I first visited your site the player couldn’t load your videos. So I tried to access the video URL directly. There was a security warning on all the major browsers. However, I accepted the “Proceed Anyway” option and now it seems to be gone. The player can also play the video files now.

    Interesting. We are using Amazon S3 for storage. These should not be secure videos on that platform. Any experience with that and how to remove that security warning?

    I actually figured this out. Just posting here in case others have the same issue. This is only a problem if you use https links to the video on Amazon S3. If you take out the s, you’re fine. If you need it to be https, then you have to rewrite the URL.

    By default, it gives you [https://<bucketname>.s3.amazonaws.com/<itemname>]. You have to rework that to read [https://s3.amazonaws.com/<bucketname>/<itemname>]
